The Princess slept badly that night. In the morning she had no appetite ['æpitait] and wanted neither toast nor coffee for breakfast. She was thinking about Prince Sparrow flying high in the sky or

somewhere among trees and flowers but not in her garden, where the air was so fresh and the water in the lake so deep.

It was spring; there were sparrows everywhere. They were building nests. They all looked like Prince Sparrow.

The Princess became awfully sad. She didn't laugh, she didn't even smile. She stood near the open window for hours. She was waiting for her bird. And she often had tears in her eyes. She couldn't hide them, and her people saw that she was very unhappy. "Our Princess has changed a lot!" they said to each other. "What's happening to her? She wants neither to eat nor to drink. She may die. We must save her."

One night the Princess dreamed that Prince Sparrow came back to her. In her dream he changed from a bird into a real prince and the Princess began to cry.

"Why are you crying?" asked the Prince. "You gave me my free-dom and broke the spell. Now I'm a real prince. You're so kind." "I loved you as a sparrow," cried the Princess.

In the morning the Princess awoke and sat up. She saw her sparrow in the room. "Prince Sparrow, you've come back!" she cried. "You're just a sparrow after all!"

Prince Sparrow never left again. For the rest of his life¹ he remained what he was — a sparrow and the best royal friend.

The Princess grew up to be a queen and was always nice and kind to her people.
